Anser Arts for Young Children Program (AAYC)

Anser Arts for Young Children Program (AAYC)

The AAYC program is an after kindergarten child care program designed to introduce each child to the basic elements of art, music, dance and drama in a relaxing, fun, and playful environment. Children will be given the opportunity to really explore and interact with art materials and techniques, write stories and perform them with peers, and learn new songs and dances all in a supportive, nurturing environment. We will have some direct instruction every day, with plenty of time for free exploration.
